meter speed and velocity are both measured using the same units. the SI unit of distance and displacement is the meter. the SI unit of time is the second. the SI unit of speed and velocity is the ratio of two, the meter per second. hope this helped!

Usually the unit of measurement of velocity is meters per second or m/s

What do you think would happen to the force of attraction of two interacting charges if their distance apart is halved?
sweet [91]

Answer:

The new force becomes 4 times the initial force.

Explanation:

The force of attraction or repulsion is given by the relation as follows :

F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

Where

d is the distance between the interacting charges

F is inversely proportional to the distance between charges.

If the distance is halved, d'=(d/2), new force is given by :

F'=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d'^2}\\\\=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{(\dfrac{d}{2})^2}\\\\=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{\dfrac{d^2}{4}}\\\\=4\times \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}\\\\F'=4F

So, the new force becomes 4 times the initial force.

Consider a parachutist that has reached terminal velocity. which of the following is true? A.) The acceleration of the parachuti
trasher [3.6K]
The correct answer is:
<span>B.) At terminal velocity there is no net force 

In fact, when the parachutist reaches the terminal velocity, his velocity does not change any more. It means that the acceleration acting on the parachutist is zero, and for Newton's second law, this means the net force acting on him is zero:
</span>\sum F = ma = 0
<span>because the acceleration is zero: a=0. 
This also means that the two relevant forces acting on the parachutist (gravity, downward, and air resistance, upward) are balanced to produce a net force equal to zero.</span>

The layer of earth that has the lightest elements is the
Sonja [21]
If I remember correctly (from my studies long time ago) the layers are from the outer to the center:
SiAl : Silicon-Aluminum
SiMa : Silicon-Magnesium (although should be Mg)
NiFe : Nickel-Iron

The SiMa layer should have the lightest elements (Magnesium is lighter than Aluminum)

Power plants can be powered by fossil fuels, such as coal or natural gas, or nuclear power to produce steam to turn turbines to
Naddika [18.5K]
<span>Nuclear energy is cleaner while generating electricity. Nuclear fission provides energy without releasing greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide. However, nuclear power plants generate significant amounts of radioactive waste.  That is why we should not choose nuclear energy over fossil fuel power plants.</span>
